What to do now, after survey conclusions

After conducting my survey, I can conclude that most students at RMHS, about 75%, have attended a drama production. Majority of them would pay between $5-10 to attend the show and about half of them would be interested in a backstage tour after the show. Something I could've asked that would've been helpful to find out is what would make someone attend the show. I could have also found out if the show was at a certain if more people would go.

I received 16 responses.

Fall musical poll

Fall Musical Poll- Please Take!

Marketing the upcoming musical

The fall musical for the drama club is approaching. The actors are hyped and the tech crew is ready, but will there be a large audience?
Some things that could be made to help market the musical include...

colorful posters- posters with vibrant colors to catch the eye of all. On these posters will be all the key information about the show and how to get tickets

a video promo of students singing- this will show the hard work going into the production and if the singing is good enough more people will come

give free tickets to students- maybe this way they'll want to go with their family and then they'll be forced to buy tickets and go together!
